Hi everyone,
OK this is embarrassing but I want to share.
As a child, I wasn't taught to brush my teeth by my parents. As you can imagine, I had multiple cavities by my teen years. It was only when my friends told me that my breath was terrible that I realised I was supposed to brush my teeth regularly 😢
I've had my cavities fixed since that time and I'm brushing my teeth regularly. But I'm still very self conscious about my mouth and teeth. I suspect I might have some hidden issues that can't be seen normally so today I made an appointment for an Xray and I want to have my teeth checked properly including roots etc. And perhaps I'll get braces for one crooked tooth I have.
Sorry guys for this embarrassing post. But I feel this is an important step on my mental health journey and self care.
